They're not kidding!
The company that manufactures this light is called Mighty Bright, and for good reason! The lamp gives off more than enough light to read by in a pitch black room. It has two brightness settings, one with both LEDs and another with just one. The LEDs in this lamp are so bright, that only one is really needed, having two is an added bonus. I'm not using a power adatpter, I'm running off of 3 AAA batteries. LEDs use such a small amount of power, those batteries should last me a year or more. Overall I was very pleasantly surprised with the quality of this light. With such a fair price I didn't think it would really hold up, but I'm definitely going to recommend it.

AWESOME!!!!
I have purchased MANY book lights in the past, but never have I owned one that was actually bright enough to read by. I usually keep moving the light around and around and around so I can see the page . I ordered the power adapter but it hasn't arrived yet, I am using 3 AAA batteries and this is a awesome light. It has 2 lights in the head you can use both or just one, the light spreads across both pages of a paperback in either mode one light or two, I haven't tried a hard cover book yet, but I really don't think this light will have any problem at all. Very Very Bright. I definitely recommend this light .

When the lights go out, there's Mighty Bright!
Know what is as essential in my luggage as prescriptions or deodorant? My book light! A book light is essential to a reader, or at least to me.

Whenever I go overnight or longer, my book light is packed. I don't sleep at night as most people, especially in "strange" places. So I rummage, actually, no, I don't rummage, I always know where exactly where I packed my book and my light, and slip off to the bathroom, get comfy on the bathmat and read until I get sleepy. I don't need to turn on any lights because my book light points the way. In another place I can go to the living room and snuggle in a chair, clip on the light, and read away. Last time I stayed at my mother's I tip-toed into her walk-in closet, found comforters, and read away. She's used to me.

But the best reason for a book light is when the lights go out as they are wont to do during thunderstorms or ice storms. My book light and a flash light are right in the drawer next to my bed. There are two other flashlights stashed around the house. Find one, light candles, go to bed, and read. I used to fret and fume over the electricity snapping out. No more.

In case the LED lights go out, I bought two replacement bulbs. I also own three other styles of book lights, but Xtra Flex 2 LED Book Light,Silver is the best of all. It has double LED lights, but only one is necessary. I need bright light to really see to read and this product meets my demand. Plus, the graceful curve of the neck and the sophistication of the silver make this an attractive product. It also comes in lime, purple, and bold blue. Take the clip at the bottom, snap it onto the back cover of the book and several pages for stability, click on the light, once or twice for your brightness, and enter that other world.

Lighting design - За осветлението у дома

Positions of luminaires into account by the designers for the places in the premises, given their purpose. And last but not least, the design is very important to be made functional lighting and extinguishing the lamp.
Tinkerbell and Butterfly Decorative Switchplate Cover

Then choose the specific models of lighting companies with their technical characteristics:

quantity consumers
method of installation
power
type and characteristics of the light beam - Tinkerbell and Butterfly Decorative Switchplate Cover

In this case it is best to consult with architects and designers on the characteristics of selected models. The information is processed by elektroproektanta and submitted to the contractor in elektroproekt relevant for specific types of lighting. This project is prescribed lighting and extinguishing of the lamp.

Are there requirements for domestic lighting

Basic requirements for wet rooms where lighting is required to be waterproof.
It is recommended that lighting in children's rooms to be strong, especially over the place to learn.
Lounge, bedrooms and kitchens are subject primarily of design views.
In modern apartments is good, especially in the common room + kitchen, lighting can be designed for different groups by firing to separate segregated scenes.


Позициите на осветителните тела се съобразяват от проектантите за съответните кътове в помещенията, отчитайки тяхното предназначение. И не на последно място, при проектирането е много важно да бъде направена функционално паленето и гасенето на осветителните тела.



Осветлението се проектира на фаза Работен проект. Съобразява се с проекта за обзавеждане, който трябва да е с детайли и
разгъвки, за да може да се предвидят местата на осветителните тела по тавани и стени. Контакти или изводи за осветление в
шкафове или електрически уреди абсорбатор, гардероб и др.
Архитекти и дизайнери подбират видовете осветление според функция и конкретно интериорно или екстериорно решение.
След това избират конкретни модели на фирми за осветление със съответните им технически характеристики:

количество консуматори
начин на монтаж
мощност
вид и характеристика на светлинния сноп

В този случай най-добре е да се консултирате с архитект и дизайнер относно особеностите на избраните модели. Информацията се обработва от електропроектанта и се представя на изпълнителя в съответния електропроект за конкретни видове осветление.

Има ли изисквания за домашното осветление

Основни изисквания са към мокрите помещения, в които задължително осветителните тела трябва да са влагозащитени.
Препоръчително е в детските стаи осветлението да бъде силно, особено над мястото за учене.
Холове, спални и кухни са предмет предимно на дизайнерските виждания.
В съвременните апартаменти е добре, особено в общите хол + кухня, осветлението да бъде проектирано на различни групи, които чрез разделно палене да обособят отделни сцени.

parquet floor / Паркет

Natural or artificial
Or three-layer laminate
many options and too many answers - each to decide for themselves.
But what's nice to know??

Hello, some time ago to us we need to put your flooring parquet floor. Dither and make you argued, what to choose, such a variety of types and prices ........... While we choose to encourage a lot of companies and people lost a lot of time and will share with you what I learned to save you a little (much) time and frustration. Parquet parquet floor are basically two types: oak and beech, oak is usually about twice as expensive than beech. Beech is a soft material and has a slight reddish tinge, usually divided into 1st and 2nd grade. Some companies divide it and more. The difference is that the former is not much to it and shareniiki chvorove no. Oak is a hard material and has an amber hue. It is divided into 4 main qualities (some sold and fifth) 1 - color all the threads are in one direction and without raznotsvetie chvorcheta, 2 - mild to allow pied (sap), 3 - already appeared chvorcheta to two millimeters in diameter , 4 and 5 - all you remember what it is. Principally in the construction and geometry of the orchestra would not make a difference regardless of quality, although some producers allow it. The size of the orchestra as the bigger the more expensive. Standard sizes are about 5/35/1.8sm. If the space in which to make very large flooring with large size is suitable and appropriate for small spaces opposite is true ...

Laminate flooring parquet floor is mostly offices and public institutions

It is considerably cheaper, durable, resistant to moisture and is quick and easy installation. If necessary, can be removed and placed in another room. Maintenance is easy because you do not need to be cycles. parquet floor mimics almost all classical and exotic wood species - beech, oak, maple, fir, walnut, cherry, pear, bamboo, wenge, magnolia, acacia and others.
In laminate parquet floor quality determines the price. Parquet importers say they have very good foreign firms producing laminate, which may even displace quality parquet floors. In Bulgaria is such a massive shopping parquet, but the price of the lowest segment.
The system of gluing the boards almost everywhere. Assembly becomes known. "click" system in which the boards fastened to one another.
In our three classes are sold laminate parquet floor, depending on the workload of the facility. No producer, and all the shops is imported. Polish flooring costs between 10.30 and 16.90 lv / sq.m. The Austrian is between 12.30 and 14.30 EUR / sq.m. A luxurious Belgian cost around 40-50 EUR assembly is 2 BGN / sq.m.

Natural layer parquet parquet floor is made of several kinds of wood. The upper layer is made from high quality natural wood, with a thickness of 2.5 to 6mm.Sledvashtiya layer is made of softwood, which is placed transversely, and thus protects the orchestra of deformation (strain). Multilayer parquet parquet floor are ready Finishing layer, whether or omasleni.Lakovoto cover is clean and protects against UV rays orchestra and has very high durability. Usually coverage is finishing 5 or 7 layers of nail masloto.Estestveniya layer parquet or parquet floor is subject to a maximum of three restorations

Естествен или изкуствен
Ламиниран или трислоен
много варианти и много отговори - всеки сам решава за себе си.
Какво обаче е хубаво да знаем ?!?

Здравейте, преди известно време и на нас ни се наложи да си поставяме паркет parquet floor. Колебаехме се и направо си спорехме, какъв да изберем, такова разнообразие от видове и цени ........... Докато изберем се съветвахме с доста фирми и хора, загубихме много време и ще споделим с вас това което научихме за да ви спестим малко (МНОГО) време и нерви. Паркетите parquet floor са основно два вида: дъбов и буков, обикновенно дъбовият е около два пъти по скъп от бука. Буковият е по мек като материал и има лек червеникав отенък, обикновенно се дели на 1-во и 2-ро качество. Някои фирми го разделят и на повече. Разликата се състои в това, че първото е без много шарениики по него и няма чворове. Дъбовият е по твърд като материал и е с кехлибарен отенък. Той се дели на 4 основни качества (някои продават и пето) 1 - едноцветно всички нишки са разположени в една посока без разноцветие и чворчета, 2 - допускат се леки разноцветия (беловини), 3 - вече се появяват и чворчета до два милиметра в диаметър, 4 и 5 - всичко каквото се сетите го има. Принципно в изработката и геометрията на паркета не би трябвало да има разлика независимо от качеството, макар че някои производители го допускат. Относно размера на паркета, колкото е по голям толкова е по скъп. Стандартните размери са около 5/35/1.8см. Ако помещението в което се полага е много голямо паркет с по големи размери е по подходящ, съответно и за по малките помещения важи обратното...

Ламинираният паркет parquet floor е по-скоро за офиси и обществени заведения

Той е значително по-евтин, дълготраен, устойчив на влага и е с бърз и лесен монтаж. При необходимост може да се демонтира и да се сложи в друго помещение. Лесен е за поддръжка, защото не се налага да се цикли. parquet floor Имитира почти всички класически и екзотични видове дърво - бук, дъб, клен, ела, орех, череша, круша, бамбук, венге, магнолия, акация и др.
При ламинирания паркет parquet floor качеството определя цената. Вносителите на паркет казват, че има много добри чужди фирми, произвеждащи ламинат, който може да измести по качество дори естествения паркет. В България се пазарува масово такъв паркет, но на цени от най-ниския сегмент.
Системата на лепене на дъските вече почти никъде не се прилага. Сглобяването става по т.нар. "клик" система, при която дъските се закопчават една за друга.
У нас се продават три класа ламинат parquet floor в зависимост от натовареността на помещението. Няма производители и всичко по магазините е внос. Полският паркет струва между 10.30 и 16.90 лв./кв.м. Австрийският е между 12.30 и 14.30 лв./кв.м. По-луксозният белгийски струва около 40-50 лв. Монтажът е 2 лв./кв.м.

Естествения трислоен паркет parquet floor се изработва от няколко вида дървесина. Най-горният слой е направен от естествена висококачествена дървесина,с дебелина от 2.5 до 6мм.Следващия слой е направен от иглолистна дървесина,която е поставена напречно и по този начин предпазва паркета от деформации(измятане).Многослойните паркети parquet floor са с готов финишен слой, лакирани или омаслени.Лаковото покритие е екологично чисто ,предпазва паркета от UV лъчи и е с много висока износоустойчивост. Обикновенно финишното покритие е от 5 или 7 слоя на лака или маслото.Естествения трислоен паркет parquet floor подлежи на максимум три реставрации

Customer Reviews
I was skeptical
I distinctly remember making fun of the Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker when I first saw it advertised in the Front Gate catalog. ("Who's going to buy a three hundred dollar blender on steroids?!? Hah-hah-hah...") Imagine my horror when my wife announced that she wanted one for her birthday. Looks like that "who" was going to be "me".

The vast majority of positive reviews on Amazon calmed my fears a bit and I ordered one up. As usual, Amazon delivered quickly and it was unpacked and setup in a couple minutes.

Exactly true to its claims, the thing actually makes perfect consistency margaritas and any other frozen drinks you can think of. I think I like it more than my wife. It has a "power tool" vibe to it that guys appreciate. Spinning blades and high speed motors. What could possibly go wrong?

There's a few things/tips to be aware of:

1) It's BIG. It just barely clears the front of our kitchen cabinets and is too tall to go under them. Pretty heavy to lift onto a high shelf too.

2) It does a more consistent job making a "full" pitcher than just a single drink. Having a lot of ice in the hopper works best; putting a single glass full of ice in will be too watery if you use the automatic cycle. To compensate, for a single drink I manually hold the "shave" switch on for ~4-5 seconds prior to starting the automaticmix cycle. Works great.

3) The shaved ice melts faster than cubes when it touches glass, so I've taken to icing the pitcher to keep the glass cool (or at least filling it with cold water for a few seconds) before adding the liquid ingredients. Unlike plastic pitchers on commercial drink makers, the glass (thick glass at that) can transfer a lot of heat. Popping it straight out of a hot dishwasher onto the stand will give you a mighty runny margarita.

4) Although "dishwasher safe" the lid to our pitcher turned a funny mottled brown/green color after one cycle in the wash. Not sure if it was the heat or the detergent or what, but after that it was slightly brittle and generally "weird". A call to the 800 customer service number yielded a free replacement which we just hand wash now.

All in all, it works as advertised and is a real crowd pleaser at parties. A good gizmo.

Awesome
When I saw this item for sale I just had to buy one for my husband as a college graduation gift. Margaritas are his favorite drink and he just couldn't duplicate that restaurant quality consistancy with a blender. This Margaritaville machine actually shaves the ice instead of chopping it like a blender would do. This creates that nice smooth consistancy of the drink instead of a lumpy texture.

It's very easy to operate. All you do is fill the ice chamber with ice, pour the correct amout of your drink mixture into the pitcher (it will make 1-3 servings at a time), set the machine to how many servings you would like, then turn it on. The machine automatically measure,shaves and blend the perfect amount of ice according to the amount of servings. No more watery drinks.

When my kids have friends over for pool parties they love me to make them alcohol free strawberry daiquiris or pina coladas or fruit smoothies.

One nice feature about this machine is that as the ice in the ice chamber melts, the water is channeled into a collection reservoir, that is easily removeable to dump out. The water never mixes with the drink mix.

Clean-up is simple. Whatever ice remains in the ice chamber can be left to melt and drain into the reservoir then discard it or you can have the machine shave the remaining ice into the pitcher. We put our pitcher and pitcher parts into the dishwasher for a good cleaning.

If you are a frozen drink lover, like my husband and I are you have to own one of these. It's pricey but worth it!

I also, highly recommend the canvas carrying case that can be purchased separately. It's very nicely made.
